Insert decorating tip in pastry bag. Fold down top of pastry bag about halfway, forming a cuff. Fill bag halfway with thawed COOL WHIP Whipped Topping. Unfold cuffed top and twist bag until it's tight against the whipped topping. To pipe, hold bag firmly and squeeze from the top, keeping bag twisted closed to prevent leaking from the top of bag.
